I dont see one decent food on that list

and a little exert from a friend on another board concerning processing companies..

There aren't that many processors for companies to choose from. Natura has one, Diamond, Eagle, Shenango... With over well 150 kinds of foods out there they are divided between 3 or 4 basically. Natura doesn't process anything but Innova products so that leaves maybe 4 plants. Diamond makes at least 60 different foods, they use a recipe, they don't choose the ingredients. They make them to the specs. of the company. It's hard to get a new food into production just because they are over loaded as it is. Food companies are feeling the bite of soaring production costs. It's sad but a fact... let's hear it for the greed of the oil companies.

so just because a crappy food and a good food come from the same plant doesnt mean a thing, the plant just processes the food to the companys specific recipe
